Continuing with the Vilppu lessons on spherical forms! Here are drawings from watching the instruction and I found one particular pose in the latest Croquis Cafe video that I am not able to draw at all, this is the best I could do (left) and it still looks super off :’D

 

Day 67:

[Ramona]

First time looking into arms, which are still a big weak spot!

Day 66:

[Ramona]

Drawing from imagination. The pose is a little bit awkward and I have no idea about the feet, but definitely better than in the past.

Day 65:

I can see a lot of improvement in your drawings, Jakob, keep it up!

[Ramona]

Hey AJ, thanks for your comment! Yes, these are the master studies of the class 😀

Day 64 are the 10 second and 2 minute poses of Vilppu’s first figure drawing class assignment. I have been working really slow this week, so 2 minute poses were really challenging for me.

[Ramona]

Continuing with Vilppu’s gesture demonstrations. I tried to draw a figure drawing before is explanations/ demonstration to see where I still have a lack of understanding, and the second pose without his instruction already came out slightly better in terms of the legs.

 

Day 63:

[Ramona]

Our study group focuses on Glenn Vilppu’s Renaissance drawing course and I finally have the feeling that I will stick to it!

Sketched along with him on some of the master studies presented in the video.

Day 62:

[Ramona]

I haven’t been in this thread for a while, but your entries never fail to amaze me, Joshua! Really inspiring, thanks for joining this challenge as well!

[Ramona]

I think your gouache studies have improved a lot, Paul! The bunny one looks really well balanced in terms of composition and value. I seem to remember that you had difficulties with the application of the gouache colors, because they would smudge together, right? You certainly have overcome this difficulty, good job!

[Ramona]

Slowly progressing!

Day 61:

 

[Ramona]

I wanted to focus on armpits this week, but I somehow was not really paying attention to this subject today, so here are just random quick figure drawings.

Day 60:

Day 59:

If you’re interested in a study group for figure drawing, please check out my post on the forum “Study groups” 🙂

I followed another life drawing class and tried a few of the reference vs. memory exercises.

Day 58:

[Ramona]

Thanks for everyone’s replies! 😀 I’m really glad that you’re interested in joining this study group!

Please send your phone numbers to the following email address, so I can add you to the Whats App group to talk about the next steps (which class we want to focus on, if we want to use Dropbox or another platform, etc.): waraishio@gmx.de

Looking forward to hearing from you 🙂

[Ramona]

Hey Tom,

thank you so much for you interest! We can definitely change the course to something else, as long as its figure drawing related 😀

I was thinking about maybe using Dropbox as a platform, because it has Dropbox Paper, which has some pretty cool functions for visual exchanges. For the initial communication, however, WhatsApp is maybe the better option! I will establish a Dropbox account on the weekend and come back to you here in the comments, maybe we find someone else who wants to join us in the meantime!

Have a nice weekend! 🙂
